Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

When a bit torrent only has one peer. More like bit dribble. Took nearly 24hrs to get a 1.4GByte file down.

Normally a torrent will max out my 20Mbs link at about 2.4MBytes/s if there's a decent number of peers.

Things I was searching for kept coming up torrents so I popped bittorrent client on the PC to get them.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

Much pain for a few weeks now. I'm just not getting much sleep and can't find any painkillers (that I can take) - that touch it. I guess I am going to have to go to the gp. I hate that - I hate that a LOT

Sending you a virtual gentle hug dilli.

Could you not get a prescription on your next hospital visit? I hate having to go to my GP. He never reads the latest screed from my hospital Consultants and treats me like a childish hypochondriac when I try to get the prescription I know my notes advise him to give me.

If you are getting acid problems after chillied food, talk to your GP about GERD and Campylobacter Pylori. You should find that a short course of antibiotics and/or Omeprazole (Proton pump inhibitor) will sort you out like magic.

Chilli does not cause stomach problems, but often cures them IMHO.

Nothing worse than not getting enough sleep and being in a lot of pain dilli hope you get the meds you need sooner rather than later.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8

As I found out at my cost, my doc put me onto morphine pain patches.
Started with 5micro gram then 10, finished up with 15microgram which I could only manage for 3week periods. (Ended up with blocked bowel)
Now back onto pregabalin which although causes same bowel problems is not as severe.
